After a brief lull, the hot summertime trend of protesting politicians over dinner is back in full force.

The leftist organization that confronted Senator Ted Cruz and his wife in a D.C. restaurant on Monday night has continued the harassment on Tuesday with a tweet addressing the Senator and other Republicans which reads, “You are not safe. We will find you.” “This is a message to Ted Cruz, Bret Kavanaugh, Donald Trump and the rest of the racist, sexist, transphobic, and homophobic right-wing scum: You are not safe. We will find you.
